01/19/24 • 46 min

If you’ve ever played a MMORPG, then much of what you experienced has its roots in the work of Richard Bartle. The co-creator of MUD - Multi-User Dungeon - in the late 1970s, Bartle has influenced designers of virtual worlds since then and is the go-to resource for academic insight in that field. Many have found Dr Bartle through his ideas on Player Types, which show us not only that there are many different motivations to play but that those reasons can shift for a player during extended play, like MMORPGs. Join us as we explore the past, present and potential futures of virtual worlds.

The Ludogogy Podcast - Evan Raskob on Speculation

Evan Raskob on Speculation

The Ludogogy Podcast

play

09/22/23 • 49 min

Cards have traditionally been used to look into the future, and Cartomancy - using decks like the tarot or Lenormand - or even playing cards was incredibly popular in the 19th century. For a more modern take on this, without the supernatural connotations, we can look to games like Peek - created by our guest, Evan Raskob. The future does not yet exist, so the stories we tell ourselves about it are very important - because they can inform what actually happens. “Where attention goes, energy flows”, as they say. Narrative imagination is a powerful tool for people to innovate and speculate on what might be possible. Listen in as Evan explains this and tells us what he has learned from designing games.
